I wish the alarm sounds had more options. There isn’t one that is the right balance between not stressful and noticeable. I also wish there was a way to make a series of alarms with clear enough sounds ### 4/5 — Good but pushes paid version *2026-04-08, version 3.3.5* I enjoy this app but you can’t make any customization without the paid version which becomes annoying ### 2/5 — So expensive *2025-10-22, version 3.2.2* Love this timer, but the ads will show up BEFORE the timer starts and I work with neurodivergent kids who cannot wait extra time. Was going to purchase but the price is $10!!! Other reviews talk about how it was only $5 not too long ago :( huge disappointment ### 5/5 — Best app *2025-07-21, version 3.1.3* Best app on the app store. All developers should treat their apps with the same care. ### 5/5 — 간편하고 좋아요 *2025-07-17* 타이머 돌릴 때마다 랜덤 배경을 자동으로 바꾸는 기능을 추가했으면 좋겠어요. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2025-07-01, version 3.1.0* As someone who struggles with focus and has downloaded tons of timer/pomodoro apps, this is the ONLY app I’ve kept and continue to use. Use it for everything from work tasks to cooking. It’s simple, visually appealing without being distracting, and affordable. The developers also occasionally update the timer with small tweaks that make it more enjoyable to use. A+++ :) ### 4/5 — Love It! *2025-05-23, version 3.0.4* Love this app! It’s so relaxing! Would love the option for background music while the timer is running. (Like water rushing) This app is also advertised for Mac OS, but when I downloaded the Mac version, it does not open! I would love to use the timer in my classroom in addition to personal use! ### 5/5 — 너무 좋습니다 *2025-05-19* 구글 타이머보다 좋은것같아요 특히 adhd적 특성이 있다면 이 앱은 필수!! ### 5/5 — A REQUEST!! *2025-05-09, version 3.0.3* Hello! I love this app, it is fabulous and helps me to revise. I do however have a small request though; could you maybe make it so that we can have timers that are over 1 hour long? That would be perfect, thank you for reading! ### 5/5 — Favorite timer *2025-04-25* I’ve used this app for years and I love it. It’s my favorite timer app. I only wish I could do longer than 1 hour. I wouldn’t even mind paying for it. ### 2/5 — Ads on an app for people with ADD?!? *2025-04-23, version 3.0.3* I do like the visual but Ads on an app for people with ADD?!? Sure, i can pay for ad free but Please?!? . Not for me. ### 5/5 — Focus *2025-03-24, version 3.0.2* This app is my go-to for focus, especially if I’m doing my homework. HOMEWORK. It’s the definition of the worst thing In the WORLD, but when I’m using this app, it actually makes homework a little fun. Because I’m challenged, of course. ### 5/5 — Приложение *2024-12-15* Очень удобные часики! ### 5/5 — Perfect for visual people *2024-12-02, version 2.9.9* I just got this timer for the pomodoro method. I love how it tracks clumps of time without the stress of looking at numbers ticking down. It’s beautiful and just the right amount of movement. I just wish I could put a little pirate ship or duck at the top or something like that. ### 4/5 — Great for working with neurodivergent kids. *2024-10-07, version 2.9.7* I work at a pediatric psych hospital, and this timer is such a useful tool for my patients! The app has a simple interface without distractions (I like the option to hide my status bar). The visuals appeal to kiddos with sensory needs. Premium is affordable and definitely worth $4.99. I wish there was an option to customize the colors or at least have improved palettes. Some of the kiddos are triggered by certain colors and prefer others; I’d love to be able to give them more options. Overall, fantastic work devs! ### 3/5 — Anuncios horribles *2024-09-23* Ruido molesto al terminar un lapso de tiempo ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Why? *2025-12-16, version 3.2.8* Either you pay, or you have to spend 10 minutes of your life switching off 100s of vendor consent buttons before you can use it for free. Hate this nonsense. Deleted. ### 1/5 — Gave up and deleted *2025-11-23, version 3.2.6* After updating, up pops the advertising consent box. The one that has you scrolling down, switching off 100 ‘vendor preferences’ buttons individually. Fed up with this nonsense. Deleted. ### 1/5 — Ads… *2025-06-01, version 3.0.4* What’s the point when the ad covers 90% of the screen and there’s no way to close it? ### 1/5 — Unusable thanks to a pop up at the start *2024-09-01, version 2.9.5* Unusable thanks to a pop up at the start ### 1/5 — BUGS or just Bad *2024-01-14, version 2.7.1* Just downloaded this app. Love the visual timer but it’s not coming up in widgets at all and that’s the sole reason I bought it. That and a whole bunch of their features in the app either aren’t working, aren’t showing up, or never worked in the first place and I got scammed 3 bucks. Either way, I’ll be requesting a refund. But don’t waste your money on premium. Just use the basic timer. ### 1/5 — Fav timer worth it *2023-07-23, version 2.3.5* So beautiful but unable to restore app to another phone I got :( ### 1/5 — Adverts doesn’t work *2023-04-14, version 2.2.9* Love how it looks and would be great if adverts didn’t come up and interrupt the timer so you walk away and come back to no timer going down. What’s the point ### 1/5 — No sound *2022-05-03, version 2.0.3* Unfortunately there is no sound when you are on a repetitive timer! ### 1/5 — Sucks !! *2020-11-02, version 1.4.0* There’s no sound, which is why I bought this !! Or else I could have just used the timer on my phone. Worst dollar I’ve spent in a while. To reply to your question: I was hoping it would play sounds leading up to the end of the timer - like on jeopardy for example. I wanted a fun timer to play board games that made sound! I’ll have to keep looking. ### 1/5 — Animation does not sync with timer *2019-04-01, version 1.1* Fills up too soon on the iPhone XR ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — bb *2026-06-10* bbbbb ### 5/5 — Visual timer great for kids *2026-05-28, version 3.4.0* Really useful as visual prompt of ending. Transitions can be tricky. ### 5/5 — Works with toddler! *2026-02-16, version 3.3.1* Got this to help take the stress out of bedtime reading routine, and we love it! The calm alarm sounds are awesome, and the visual is pretty but not too engaging for her. I do wish it had the option to hear trickling water as it fills up though! ### 5/5 — Everything I need now *2026-02-10, version 3.3.1* This app makes it simple for me to set timers that I use for my work. Presets were missing initially, but the developer added them in and I’m really happy about that. Great timer! ### 5/5 — Nearly Perfect *2026-01-23, version 3.3.1* A better timer, does it even exist? You could spend forever searching through an ocean of sub-par, unremarkable, and unreliable timer apps... or you could just get this one. I was looking for a manual-repeating interval timer that works, and after spending $20 on a physical timer, I then stumbled upon this gem of an app that actually works better. The visuals with the water rising (or optional draining) is down-right fun, without being overwhelming, or taking away from the necessity of a functioning tool. It is the cherry on top of a hot fudge sundae, while on break, still clocked in at work. Not only does the lifetime upgrade make this tool even more useful, I also think it's wise to not let this kind of attention to detail perish, so I had all the justification I needed to make a purchase. Although I was literally sold on the app already, there is one thing to be desired. I would love to see an option to allow 1 tap to reset the timer, rather than the 2 taps that it currently takes to use the timer in repetition. I also think that a tap counter would be a neat addition. A counter in which you fill up the water as you tap until reaching your target goal would work well with the toolset and style here. Or a target-less tally, where perhaps your taps just splash the water as it's keeping count. If you're reading this, just know that this a great timer, and an app worth purchasing! I am thrilled to have found it. Sincerely, Used2B Timer-less ### 5/5 — Works great, a new & shiny thing for my ADHD *2026-01-10, version 3.3.0* I like this app to use with my issues w/ADHD. Have used Pomodoro technique for a long time and needed a new shiny thing to do the timers. A couple of options I have not been able to find in other apps: 1) When timer hits zero, if the whole screen to flash for some user selected time or even 5 or 10 seconds. This is purely for the more noticeable silent alarm. 2) Option to change to another font. 3) Lastly, suer created color combo. thanks. :) ### 5/5 — Cannot set custom presets *2025-12-14, version 3.2.7* I like the visual aspects of this timer app but the inability to set your own preset timer buttons is a ridiculous oversight. I hastily paid for this without first checking that this feature was there. It didn’t cross my mind that it wouldn’t be there as I mistakenly presented such an obvious feature would be there. Instead there are five fixed one-touch timer buttons 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 minutes and these cannot be changed. To set your own timer if it isn’t one of these requires messing around with clicks and sliders so I’m back to the standard iOS timer. Disappointing. ### 5/5 — 애플워치 *2025-11-25* 안녕하세요 너무매우 잘 사용하고있습니다. 매우 만족스러워서 유료 구매도 했어요. 그 어떤 타이머보다도 시간의 흐름이 와닿아서, 이 앱이 감사합니다. 혹시 애플워치에서도 사용할 수 있게 해주실수있나요? 다른 애플워치 타이머로는 liquid timer를 대체하지 못합니다ㅜㅜ ### 5/5 — Bus Driver *2025-11-12, version 3.2.4* Great visual for my kids who ride the school bus. I put it up high at the front so they know when I have to leave the school. $9.99 for lifetime membership is worth it. ### 5/5 — Developer, Master Students, Researcher *2025-10-15, version 3.2.1* Its great for focus. Great tool though honestly --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
